Hello all! We are looking at building a register of military Can-Am's, if you own one or have a reference photo please do share!

Ideally we need the Military Reg, the first 4 digits of the Frame Number would be an added bonus!

Got 3 Bowman Antenna bases up for grabs! Top right has already sold sorry! £60 each!

Hello all!

Sadly it's come the time to sell on my lovely 1962 Hotchkiss M201 Jeep. Only had chance to cover 500 miles since restoration!

She's had a full restoration and conversion so that all visual aspects look to be of wartime manufacture (vertical strengtheners, rear tub folded seams, dash notch, gauges) and British wartime vehicle regulations (wing marker lights, horn).

Many many thousands spent on her (new full wiring loom, new carb, new dizzy, new plugs, new head gasket, new lights, new top hat woodwork, new floors, new sides, 0% Rot! new clutch and thrust bearing)

Still in 24v she runs perfectly as can be seen on the attached video. Many boxes of 24v spare parts included (dizzy, plugs, ht leads) so worry free motoring for years to come! New batteries also fitted last year!

Much of the work has been done by Nick Jeffrey of Jeffrey Engineering fame.

WS19 Set currently fitted, complete with A + B sets, F + G Section Aerials, intercom system, ancillaries and even a mast kit and remote operating kit! This can be removed and a lower price negotiated as required.

Engine running -

Looking - £16,000 Ono.

Danny

Wanted! - Land Rover Series 3 109 - GPMG Passenger Mount. Cash waiting either original or reproduction considered.

M6PFA working a Clansman 320

Hello!

Thanks for your reply, 63 indicates 1st Herefordshire in the 11th Armoured.

The 636 I believe is the number partly obsquired by the Sten, as 3 is yellow according to that US site. The photo was taken in Sept 44 in Holland.

Cheers

Danny

Is the code below Pioneer 636?

According to: http://www.med-dept.com/pom/about.php

Would mean Blue/Yellow/Blue

Danny

Any ideas please chaps?

Three bands should be present looking at it enlarged possibly Red/Yellow/Green??? Based on comparing shades to other known items.

How much for clansman 2 pin power lead?

Cheers

Danny

Hello all!

Does anyone know a source for these or know what the official alternative is?

It's for my CW key on my 19 Set.

Cheers

Danny

Hellooo!

Nice set up! I've got some guesstimate measurements from a bit of reverse engineering, comparing the tray the wheel arch.

This mount fits directly to the arch, the 8 bolts attach to the rubber vibration "top hats" which inturn attach to the tray.

So hopefully should have a mock up made shorty!

Danny

Hello!

Does anyone know of any originals or have any measurements for both the securing mounts 1a and 1b at all please?

Cheers in advance,

Danny

Anyone know a source for a WS19 Mounting Tray correctly known as "Carrier Set No.21" please?

Many thanks as always,

Danny

Hello! Yes all are genuine

danny

Thanks all for the comments!

All are deact's unfortunately, I do have a Nagant 91/30 currently on the bench awaiting a PU scope in the post lol! One of the No4 Mk1 T's does still have its original transit case.

Myself and Paul ("Commando Sniper" on other forums) were a tad bored at home today while the WAG's were out shopping...

And finally, 78 years of British sniping history:

For the non-believers, enjoy

Danny

To give it is correct title it should be: Preparation for Overseas Movement Markings (or POM Markings)

anyone have a list of British codes please?

Cheers

danny

Sorry to bump this old thread, been wondering about these coded stripes for a while as wanting to finish marking up my jeep.

You can see from the attached picture, to the right of the windscreen base (right of the "PNR") is these three horizontal stripes.

Is there anyway of working out what the colours should be?

Cheers

Danny

Sad end to a mighty B52! Being an ex-RAF Airframe + Propulsion Technician and witnessing first had the destruction of our aircraft (C130K's at RAF Lyneham) I know what it's like lol!

Though couple of packs of Custard Creams to the civie contractors secured a few bits for my collection! Lol!

Cheers

Danny

Hello!

Thanks for your reply.

I'd ideally like a runner that needs only a light bit of restoration work, renewing an older restoration job. :-D

Cheers

Danny
